Information Event on Studying in Germany

13.05.2017

This May, our students had the opportunity to learn about studying at the Internationale Berufsakademie (University of Cooperative Education – iba), which is also a part of the F+U group of companies. The information event was held at F+U Academy of Languages and attended by 35 inquisitive students. The relaxed atmosphere encouraged the audience to ask many questions about iba and studying in Germany.

iba is Germany’s largest state-recognized private University of Cooperative Education. With its unique concept of the “split week”, it offers a dual study model that balances theory and practice. Students study two days and work three days a week in a company adapted to their course of study. Totalizing twenty hours per week respectively, students can at once learn and gain insight into a professional environment.

iba does not only offer a different system, it is also easer to enter than most other German universities, as there are no deadlines for application. Moreover, the school can help students from abroad meet the language requirements for studying in Germany.

iba’s courses of study are focused on commercial and management areas, in which professional experience is invaluable for employers. Thus, the dual study model responds to current day employment problems with an innovative solution.
